Be one of the first to visit our giraffes in their new home from June 2025!
The Chester Zoo herd of giraffes have moved over to their brand-new home in Heart of Africa. We’re giving them a few months to settle into their new, state-of-the-art habitat, so you’ll be able to see them again in spring 2025.
